Reporting to Chris Hirst, the group chief executive of Havas UK and Europe, Ward will lead operations across the company’s entire UK business, responsible for process, environment, culture and quality of output.

Before working at Naked in Australia, Ward was the regional chief operating officer at Host Sydney.
